Hello Everyone,
Does anyone have any info/suggestions re: IS IT POSSIBLE to change a support order? It's a final order (we had trial) but there's still a few corrections being made ie: THE WRONG DATES of Trial are on it - and a few other errors.. so this is not with the FRO yet. I've emailed my lawyer twice, and ofcourse - it's like pulling teeth.. I have never seen or heard of an order that does not allow for extraordinary expenses, dental/medical, sports (extracurriculars). My order (my side was awarded 'costs') has absolutely no provisions/allowances made for ANYTHING other than a flat monthly amount. Standard to have included: a Life Insurance policy taken out by the payor (on his/her self), with the RECIPIENT as a beneficiary in an amt. that secures the child support (and/or spousal) order. Not only was this left out, but there is NOTHING re: dental.. My ex has controlled me/us for long enough with financial terrorizing.. so now - my child is FINALLY (after several years of not being able to get involved in any sport) involved in ONE sport - the ex had said he'd contribute - and now (even though I've yet to see one cent of the "new amount" ) he's refusing to contribute anything.. his reply "your new child support amount should cover it" - - More CONTROL. This is outrageous and the order I got (was done in haste - I happen to know this b/c it took calling the MIN of the Attorney general to even GET IT RELEASED after many, many months) is B.S. Is it not standard to have some allowances made for ie: dental/medical, sports - not sure if this falls under "extraordinary" or not. All I know is: this order is NOT totally final "yet" in the sense that there are a few changes to be made - not to the "amount" but the specifications (of the order itself).. can this be done? and if so, HOW? If I don't hear back from my lawyer - it will be too late and I have no idea what, or if I personally can do anything about this. Thanks all..
